The RND family efflux pump FemT contributes to lipid homeostasis in Staphylococcus aureus

Akanksha Thukral, Camryn M. Bonn, Jamie N Halucha…·Martin John Mcgavin

This study shows that the RND efflux pump FemT in Staphylococcus aureus helps maintain lipid homeostasis by exporting isoprenoid and carotenoid lipids, preventing oxidative damage.
